General: Beginning with a clean mold will provide accurate results. It is recommended to remove mold release and rubber residue with CLEAN WIZ. 0.2-1.0 phr will be effective in most rubber compounds. (2-10 parts per 1000 parts rubber). Begin testing with 0.25 and 0.5 phr to determine the optimum level of usage in a particular rubber recipe. Process aid additive may be Banbury mixed or milled in the rubber recipe. If the process aid additive can be milled with the rubber first, it will promote faster mixing of fillers and additives, also reducing tack on the mill. In molding operations, rubber viscosity will be reduced allowing better fill at lower temperature and pressure. Material may thicken at lower temperatures. Store at room temperature or apply equivalent heat to restore flow properties.
